ATHEIST PAPER INOITESi ANTI-SEMITISM
New York (AJP)—An Atheist monthly, "The Truth Seeker," published here under the editorship of Charies Smith, has used the recent statements Premier Ben-Gurlon made to Look Interviewer Attwood as a basis for an anti-Semitic outburst.
Because Ben-Gurion had told Attwood that "We Jews are pior ncers. The Arabs are not. Can you imagine an Arab going to live in the Negev to do what some of my friends are doing?" the "Truth Seeker," In its current issue, etidorializes: "You Jcwizod Gentile Americans, what do you think of such discrimination? What are you going to do about it? Why not tell the Israelis that the Arabs (ire their brothers?" The Atheist paper adds: "As the Israelis take over more territory, expelling Arabs, Americans will help feed the refugees and doubtless soon will permit their wholesale immigra¬ tion into the U. S. . . . There seems to be no escape from universal ¦ amalgamation—exejpfTosuthe Jews."
• • • LACK OF BASIC KNOWLEDGE OF HEBRAIiC HERITAGE Brooklyn (AJP)—Out of some 300 Jewish young men and women belonging to various clubs and Zionist groups, 240 blamed their parents and home for their lack of a basic knowledge of their He¬ braic heritage, according to a survey made this week by the AJP reporter in the Kings Highway section of Brooklyn. Due to a cer¬ tain over-bearing pressure exerted by ultra-Orthodox parents, some of the youths had sought an escape in Eissimilation, even to the ex¬ tent of changing names. A "Cohen" adopted "Kane," a "Skudersky," "Skudder." The trend to assimilation via marriage was'shocking. The AJP reporter, however, also discovered that all the youths, without exception and no matter how assimilated, would welcome any move by Jewish leadership to help them strengthen their ties to the Jewish body whole.
» • • EISENDBATH CBIITCAL OF "MECHANICAL RELIGION" New York (AJP)^—Completing a five-month global tour to de¬ termine the religious sources available on behalf of peace. Dr. Maurice NJ .Eisendrath, president of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations, released a report last week in which he criticized the major faiths for being too mechanical. "I saw everywhere," he said, "too much obeisance before shrines of Buddha, Krishna and Christ and not enough obedience to their common and respective moral mandates. Religious forces too often are becoming ingrown, egocentric, complacent and so entranced with the dead past that they have lost sight of their overriding duty to the present and to assuring that mankind has a future. One of the greatest tragedies of our time," Dr. Eisendrath added, "is that, despite the centraiity of peace in the teaching of all religions, the church, the synagogue, the shrine, the temple and the mosque throughout the world in 1958 are largely Irrelevant to the salvation of a world in tUrmoil, Majes¬ tic mosques, resplendent shrines—with hordes of hungry beggars at their foors! The church and synagogue to a large extent have be¬ come so Involved in mechanics that they have frequently lost sight of the goals, and the result is that our religious institutions seem to be deaf to the agonizing moral questions involving peace "ind war, equity and justice.
The noted Reform leader proposed that religious leaders should convoke a world conference to study ways and means by which to attain true peace and brotherhood,

Mr, Lurie, a great favorite here, is one ot the nation's top advor cates ot strengthening Israel. He is prominent in tho fields of ad¬ vertising and public relations.
Cong. Roosevelt, now serving his third term in the House, is considered one of Israel's strong¬ est supporters on Capitol Hill. His resolution, introduced in Congress three months ago calling for the Government to purchase $60 mil¬ lions in Israel bonds, we consid¬ ered one of the friendliest ges¬ tures ever made in Washington on behalf of Israel.

The concluding paragraph of Mr, Roosevelt's Cong'resslonal res¬ olution states:
"If It has been sound for our government to make such ges¬ tures of faith in our Allies in the past, certainly the patriotism of Haym Salomon and the ten-year
MB. LUBIE
record of the State of Israel justi¬ fies us now in extending in this form our. heartfelt congratula¬ tions to our newest ally; and will demonstrate our faith that Israel's devotion to freedom, jus¬ tice and morality will survive the future challenge to her Independ¬ ence. Her success In securing for her people economic security end stability In the years to come will be the cornerstone upon which peace can and will be brought tQ all the peoples of the Middle East, and with it the end of aggressive domination for the benefit of any one community alone."
